Since 1919, Camp Manito-wish YMCA has
been providing outstanding camp and wilderness
tripping experiences for boys and girls
ages 10-18. Located on the shores of Boulder
Lake in Boulder Junction Wisconsin, we
are in the heart of the Northwoods surrounded
by hundreds of lakes, rivers, streams and
state forest land - the perfect place to
build skills, memories and friendships
that will last a lifetime. |

Whether you visit Manito-wish with your
school for a Leadership program, for a
meeting, or as a summer camper, the time
you spend here will be invaluable. When
you stay in such a beautiful setting and
interact with our outstanding staff, you
will grow in ways that will change your
life and your relationship with your home,
and your community. You will make lifelong
friends, learn new skills, laugh, play,
and travel through beautiful forests and
waterways.
